It hurts and it probably has for a long time.
There's no magic medicine to get rid of it.
Don't let anybody fool you.
DEPRESSION IS REAL.
Don't ignore it. Don't pretend to be okay.
9 out of 10 teenagers today suffer from clinical depression. Ignoring it won't make it go away.
Get help.
Please.
NOTE FROM MANY YEARS LATER.
oh my God ....younger me was such precious depressed bean And I've been debating deleting this whole thing on and off all week but I've decided I won't. She may have not been a genius writer (I'm still not 💀). But there was a version of me that was so proud of this story and I in turn am so proud of her and the flickering candle of dreams she protected during the stormiest times of our life. So I'll keep it up for her and for me too. For both versions of me still fanning our silly little dream.
